Great art and story. The story was well developed and leaves the door open for more adventures.
I keep telling myself that I‘m going to limit the number of books I take out of the library so I can read the ones I already own. Then I go in to pick up a hold (in this case, the tagged book) and they have all these tempting displays… #libraryhaul
Just a wonderful book with the illustrated history of how Heartstopper started.

July Winner: Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
I'm not sure how to feel about this installment. Tobias feels like a shell of himself in this one. The romance feels forced, there is simultaneously too much going on, and also too little. Silver's mother is at least very interesting.
There is a lot here that could be improved. I think if this was longer and had more time to develop it would work better. Otherwise it feels like an overflowing pot.
The last 5 years I've struggled with reading. But this book has reminded me of the joy it brings. I'm loving it so much.
This definitely had its moments, especially in the development of Alec as a character and in showing his commitment to Magnus. But the prose was often so weak, and Magnus, an immortal being with centuries of wisdom and experience, came off as TSTL. I had hoped to be reminded of why I love this series but mostly I was reminded of why I stopped reading it. 😔
